Sweet Stops & Street Art — Ipoh’s Hidden Café Finds

Ipoh is more than just a pit stop — it’s a food and culture haven that rivals Penang. Strolling through the charming lanes of Market Lane and Concubine Lane, you’ll find vibrant street murals, nostalgic architecture, and hidden gems around every corner.

During our mural walk, we took a break at Girlie Café, a cozy spot with a warm heritage feel and homemade pastries that truly impressed. The standout was the lemon butter cake — moist, tangy, and possibly one of the best we’ve had. We also tried the matcha kouign amann and cherry cake, both rich in flavor and beautifully baked.

Whether you’re exploring for art or indulging in local eats, Ipoh’s old town delivers the perfect blend of culture and comfort — and Girlie Café is definitely worth the stop.
